Hi all :),
I have been using my UK orbit for about a year with no problem (so far). For the the past two weeks though after a random use of 2 to 5 minutes it freezes! It either stays with what is on screen or returns a white screen. From today also the led is not turning on while charging and it wont turn on :( !!
I tried re flashing, rebooting, putting back the older ROM but the symptoms happen, no matter what ROM or application is used.
A few days before this started if a remember correct I had bled dry the battery (in flight). But everything was ok for some time.

I would be really glad if someone could help me out, I really like ORBIT and wouldn't like to leave it. Keep up the good work for this magnificent site ;):D

I had the exact same problem with my P3300. It's a malfunction in the Motherboard. I've called the dutch helpdesk and because a hard reset didn't do much good the PDA was picked up later that day to be sent to Eurotwice, the repair station in Belgium. I got my phone back 2 weeks later, I started it and it froze again! So I immediatly called HTC Netherlands and again, the P3300 was picked up by UPS that afternoon. The second time I wrote a letter to the repair station and sent it with my phone. In another topic on another website I read that some other phone with the same problem had been fixed by replacing the motherboard. I got my phone back today and it works great! It hasn't crashed today, and I have confidence it won't in the future. So my tip to you and anyone who experiences this problem: Call the HTC helpdesk in your country and ask them to sent your PDA to a repair station. It might take a while but they fix it well! By the way, you have 2 years full garantee so it didn't cost me anything! Great service from HTC!
